3d Printers can print workable guns. Criminals are using drones to smuggle drugs and things into prisons.

who knows how creative they might get. Cant see much benefits though of doing it this way. You couldn't hold much ammunation because of weight and it'd be easier to see a drone above head coming from the distance rather than a person with a concealed weapon.

A lot of technology (money) and time put into a machine which will not inflict much damage to large group and would be hard to gain access to a specific "target".

Sure, but it'd extend to any person really, not just the President and polarizing figures. Drone warfare has grown exponentially under the Obama administration, and pending certain legal issues drones could very well be used domestically for postal/delivery, security, and film services. So I'd say sure, someone could weaponize a civilian drone and use it to cause harm to other people.

Now, in terms of the President specifically, I do think that dramatic increase of likelihood would sharply decrease after the first instance. It'd be the first assassination attempt of any kind on a major world leader. Regardless of the success of the attempt, it would instantly justify a new security budget for the secret service which would probably make electronic sensors capable of monitoring the immediate air space a necessary security measure.

I can see that the USFG would use it a great deal in the future, but it might also backfire on them. That's just the Technological advancements.
